this turkey meatloaf was very good and I will make again for sure but it was very spicy. I feel there may have been a typo on the black pepper measurement. I think 1/2 teaspoon of pepper would be better than 1 and 1/2 teaspoons, unless you like really spicy meatloaf. -
ok, because of food allergies and ingredients on hand, I did adjust this just a bit, but wow! Been looking for a decent Turkey meatloaf recipe for a long time!! This is the best I've found so far. So, what I did different: only had 1 - 1/4 lbs grd turkey; used 1 cup oats in place of bread crumbs, ran the carrot and celery in a food processor ( personally don't like chunks mixed in),added chopped spinach (wilted into the finished onions/carrots/celery..how can I have sun-dried tomatoes without spinach? lol!), followed advice of another comment to reduce pepper. Just delicious! -
Yummy turkey meatloaf! Very tasty and full of good stuff! Especially love the flavour the sundried tomato gave it, also I had about a half cup of frozen cranberries I needed to use up so chopped them and added them too with lovely results. It sliced very nicely, can hardly wait for turkey loaf sammie for lunch tomorrow!! I will be making this one again often, thanks for posting. -
Very tasty meatloaf, thank you Evelyn for posting this one! DH asked for seconds and I had a meatloaf sandwich the next day for lunch.

OK, here goes. I live in Athens, Greece. I moved out here many, many years ago from Ottawa, Canada - so I am blessed in having two wonderful heritages!
I suffer from compulsive obsessive behaviour with regard to food and my psychiatrist thought it would be a good idea to find a 'society' where many have the same problem and try to find a cure.
So far, I've copied a couple of thousand recipes from this site and my psychiatrist has thrown the towel in and refuses to answer the phone when I call.
What did I do wrong?
Got 3 kids that keep me on the go - 10 and under at this point (2008) - I may not get round to updating this for a few years, so you'll have to do your own maths.
I teach English full-time and Greek Cookery part-time. I would like to make the cooking part of it full-time and the English Grammar part of it part-time.
That's all for now.
